*Astragalus as one of the main ingredients of AdrenoBoost™: (Astragalus membranaceous) has been used as a natural rejuvenating tonic. Its immuno-supportive polysaccharides and other active ingredients are useful in supporting a healthy immune system (Wang DC. "Influence of Astragalus membranaceus (AM) polysaccharide FB on immunologic function of human periphery blood lymphocyte." Zhonghua Zhong Liu Za Zhi 1989; 11:180-183.). The main constituents of Astragalus membranaceus include polysaccharides, saponins, flavonoids and amino acids (Bombardelli E, Pozzi R. "Polysaccharides with immunomodulating properties from Astragalus membranaceus and pharmaceutical compositions containing them." Eur pat 441278 A1; 1994) (Lin LZ, He XG, Lindenmaier M, et al. "Liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry study of the flavonoids of the roots of Astragalus mongholicus and A. membranaceus." J Chromatogr A 2000; 876:87-95) (Sun Y, Hersh E, Lee SL, McLaughlin M, Loo T, Mavligit G. "Preliminary observations on the effects of the Chinese medicinal herbs Astragalus membranaceus and Ligustrum lucidum on lymphocyte blastogenic responses." J Biol Response Mod . 1983; 2:227-237).
*(Glycyrrhiza glabra) is an herb that has been studied for its effects on body fat, the immune system and indigestion. In a study, the immune activities of mice were supported after the mice were given compounds from licorice (Hong YK et al. “Effects of Glycyrrhiza Glabra Polysaccharides on Immune and Antioxidant Activities in High-Fat Mice.” International Journal of Biological Macromolecules. 2009; 45 (1): 61-4. Accessed August 7, 2012.).
